THE vAGRANT TRAMP
VINO spends the Winter in Jail and the
summer on the rOad-HOw He can be
Vanquished.

The tramp is beginning to make his ap-
pearance with the fall weather. He is just
the same old tramp that he always was. One
of this fraternity recently called upon an
Augusta gentleman and solicited
something to eat. He was given a
piece of pie for starter. He
informed his host that he should enjoy his
pastry better if he could wash it down with a
glass of milk, which we regret to say was
given him. This vagrant was a rugged look
ing young man of about twenty-four or FIVE
years, yet he was able to beg with the brazen
air of an adept. The police station is fur
nishing lodgings for two or three of these
fellows nearly every night. They all tell
the same old story-they are after
work. We know of several instances where
work has been offered to these fellows and
in each case it wasn't quite the thing they
desired to do. There is little doubt that the
establishment of a workshop in connection
with our Jail would clear this county of such
fellows more speedily than anything else.
Jail has no terrors for them,-the only
thing they fear is work. 1t a well know n
fact that our county jails have come to be
the alternating places of these fellows.
When the cold weather comes Cd they COM
NIT some theft which will give them a
sentence that will board them comfortably
during the winter and turn them out hale
and hearty in the spring, to continue their
pedestriaaism. Such fellows are dangerous
element to be allowed to go at large.
1t is from their ranks that the army of
criminals is most readily recruited. Some
stringent method Of freeing our State from
their presence should be adopted. The
bounty of $40 which is paid in New Hamp-
shire for the delivery of 4 tramp 1T the near
est police court has made the IN .mbers of
this fraternity exceedingly minus in the
Granite State. 1t has also been said to have
furnished the sportsmen of New York, Bps-
ton and other cities where nimrods A Iuri.h
in the dog DAYS, with a field for summer
sport which is even more exhileratiog-and
far more remunerative than the pursuit of
the bison on the wild Western plains. With
similar inducements these same sportsmen
might be prevailed upon to come to Maine
next season.
